int removeEntryFromFSTAB(const char * fullPath, const char * fileName);
I am sending /etc/fstab in fileName to this function and the path to
be deleted in fullPath


NOW
 char newFileName[PATH_MAX];
......
.......
 rename(newFileName, fileName));


I am taking a new file, writing my entries to it and then replacing it
with original file. I don't find anything wrong with that
